Thank you - need a lot more people to speak out while all the 0’s were pimping for the Olympics for a city that can’t afford it. Only 0’s friends will prosper from that. He owes a lot of people in Chicago favors, only reason he went - they can probably blackmail him.

Two disturbing things I've heard:

1. Obama went to Copenhagen because of a lot of "pressure" put on him by Daley.
2. About 15 of the voting members have business dealings with Chicago trucking companies.

On the other hand, we can hope that there's a residual anti-U.S. feeling there as well as a growing feeling that Obama is a tiresome, boring self-aggrandizer that needs to be publicly stiffed. I hope Michelle's comments about the sacrifice she, Oprah, and Barry made to go there will get them the big stink eye from the voting members. The committee can be sure that the leftist president of Brazil will open the coffers to fund everything down there.

Yes, give the hug to Rio and the cold shoulder to arrogant American presidents.

O Rio de Janeiro continua lindo
O Rio de Janeiro continua sendo
O Rio de Janeiro, fevereiro e março
Alô, alô, Realengo - aquele abraço!
Alô, torcida do Flamengo - aquele abraço!
Chacrinha continua balançando a pança
E buzinando a moça e comandando a massa
E continua dando as ordens no terreiro
Alô, alô, seu Chacrinha - velho guerreiro
Alô, alô, Terezinha, Rio de Janeiro
Alô, alô, seu Chacrinha - velho palhaço
Alô, alô, Terezinha - aquele abraço!
Alô, moça da favela - aquele abraço!
Todo mundo da Portela - aquele abraço!
Todo mês de fevereiro - aquele passo!
Alô, Banda de Ipanema - aquele abraço!
Meu caminho pelo mundo eu mesmo traço
A Bahia já me deu régua e compasso
Quem sabe de mim sou eu - aquele abraço!
Pra você que meu esqueceu - aquele abraço!
Alô, Rio de Janeiro - aquele abraço!
Todo o povo brasileiro - aquele abraço!

"And for those of you in Rio Lindo..."

I wish there was a transcript of the conversation. I can only see the first page of the link and I do not see any Susan from Glendale, California.
